Advice to Girls.

The girls of the country have no truer
friend than Louisa NJ Alcott, and the
very pith of wisdom is conferred in this
bit of advice: Girls, don't be in haste
to wed. Build up healthy bodies hy good
food, plenty of exercise and sleep Learn
all the useful household arts before you
attempt to make d home. Cultivate your
minds with the best books, l. at you may
be able to teach your children much that
school training alone will never give
you Choose your amusements wisely,
for youth must have pleasure, but need
not waste itself ID harmful frivOlity
Above all, select your friends with care
Avoid girls who live only for fashion,
Irritation and enjoyment and use the
privilege all women NAV claim to decline
the acquaintance of young men whose
lives will not bear inspection by the inaO
cent eyes of women. Let no drlusion of
wealth, rank, comliness or love tempt
You to trust your happiness to such al
one. Watch and wait till the true lover
comes, even if all your life, for single
blessedness is far better than dnunle mis-
cry and wrong Spinsters are very nsr-
full, happy, independent race. never more
so than now, when all professions are open
to them, and honor, fame and fortune
are bravely won by many gifted mem bers
of the sisterhOOd Set Your standard
high and live up to it, sure that the re-
ward will come, here or hereafter, and
in the form best snited to your real needs.
